Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei’s first public address after his father’s funeral comes with a ‘revenge list’, naming 13 world leaders after the death of the country’s late supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
As reported by ANI The online ‘revenge list’, published late on Saturday by Hamshahri, a national Iranian daily newspaper, names 13 foreign leaders whom it portrays as targets following Khamenei’s death.
This publication coincided with the first public message from his son and successor, Mojtaba Khamenei, since his father’s six-day funeral procession last week.
The graphic layout depicts United States President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with sniper-style crosshair targets superimposed on their foreheads.
Beneath them are 11 other leaders shown wearing orange prison uniforms, including British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, US Central Command Commander Brad Cooper, US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, and Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar.
In his statement, Mojtaba Khamenei said, ‘Vengeance is the will of our nation and must inevitably be carried out.’
He added, ‘These criminals, whose names appear on a list, will take to their graves the wish of a peaceful death in their beds.’
Despite the release of the graphic, there was no indication that the list had been officially endorsed by Tehran.
Furthermore, Mojtaba Khamenei did not identify the specific individuals he believed were responsible for his father’s demise.
The successor has not been seen in public since before the outbreak of hostilities and was reported to have suffered injuries in the same strike that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on 28 February.
